This document discusses how the WSO2 ESB middleware platform can help organizations scale up their integration capabilities with lower costs. It describes how the WSO2 ESB uses a component-based and configuration-driven approach to provide functional, administrative, geographic, and load scalability. Key features that enable scalability include its modular architecture based on the WSO2 Carbon platform, performance scaling capabilities, integration with other WSO2 products for governance and lifecycle management, and support for cloud deployments. The document also provides examples of how the ESB has helped customers through case studies and demos of its capabilities.
